The novel that I am requesting for all of my students deals with hot-button issues like drunk driving, teen suicide, and depression with skill and delicacy. Tears of a Tiger is a gripping novel that will mesmerize students with its relatable characters and honest portrayal of teenage angst and depression. As Tears of a Tiger is an epistolary novel, its inclusion in my classroom syllabus offers students a break from the traditional format of a novel and exposure to alternative forms of literary expression In my class, Tears of a Tiger will act as a vehicle to drive important conversations for many issues that are relevant to adolescents in a powerful way. Although death is a big focus of this novel, the many other themes, including parent-child relationships, responsibility, and emotional health not only provide for great literary lessons, but also serve to promote discussion about these real-life issues within a susceptible classroom of preteens or teenagers.
